Sleeping plays important role in the physical health of humans. Mentioning that, most people will find ways just to have a comfortable and peaceful sleeping.
Some people prefer linen bedsheets as for them, they can get more sleep because of its softness. Washing may not be enough to maintain linen's quality. Storing the linen properly also matters.
Proper storing for linen helps preserve its color and the quality of the fabric. Frette is known as an Italian linen that has been trusted by many luxury hotels. Its marketing manager Amy Skarbni shares some tips about maximizing the shelf life of the linens to Architectural Digest.
A dark dry space is an ideal place for the linen bedsheets, according to Skarbni. "Store your linens in a bone-dry space with minimal light exposure," Skarbnik said. The marketing manager also added that for those who have linen closet (this is a suggested furniture), she suggested a trunk at the end of the bed or a storage bench are the design-friendly alternatives.
Keep the linens contained in order to protect it from dust. Make sure to store it in a fabric-friendly container.
According to the Frette marketing manager, avoid leaving linens in the plastic bags from the dry cleaner. In order to prevent the linens from yellowing, steer clear of cedar or cardboard.
To maintain the storage neat and organized, avoid overcrowding. As much as possible, there should be three sets of sheets per bed.
To maintain the aroma of the linen, Skarbnik advised to use sachets. Make sure the sachet bag is white to avoid coloring bleeding onto the linens. It is also good to use scented drawer liners.
Since sleeping has been mentioned, a study published on the journal Sleep is looking at how sleeping deprivation can cause illness to the health.
The study includes 11 pairs of identical twins with different sleep patterns. The researchers studied the impact of those patterns on their immune system. The result, the twin who slept less tended to have a depressed immune system, thus making them vulnerable to getting sick, according to Thrillist.
